Re: Commute/Flex work options a Deal breaker?

["John Posada" <jposada99 -at- gmail -dot- com>]

I'm not questioning that it matters to people. However, the way the question
was asked, it seemed that the poster was asking for an opinion on the issue
based on what it may mean to us, and that doesn't matter. The question is
whether it mattered to the poster and that is the only person to whom it
matters.

BTW...forgive me for posting this after over a week of absence. I had
something happen (my mom passed away) that took my attention away from this
list all last week.
